| Message | It is for removing child molesters, murderers, and rapists from our midst.To pay for their healthcare, their food, their clothing, and, in the case of those deemed "insane", their therapy is too great a cost for our government and for our people.When murderers are allowed to live to ripe old age while their victims never had the chance, then the death penalty is the only punishment deemed worth in the opinion of the Voronan Resurgence Party.When rapists and child molesters are given a slap on the wrist each time they're caught, you know something is wrong.The VRP will never compromise on this issue, and shall always make sure that the victims and their families see justice. |

| Message | Your point of view is very unfortunate. It is very easy to corrupt such a system and therefore, innocent people will get killed. Innocent people will also get killed as a result of human error. There is no justice in killing people! |

| Random fact: Any RP law granting extraordinary "emergency powers" or dictator-like powers to a government must be passed by at least a 2/3rds majority, but (like all RP laws) may always be overturned by a simple majority vote of the legislature. |
